Did a story today about foul shooting and how Memphis is horrible and alot of people say will keep them from winning it all. Listed the AP top 10 teams and guess who is #1 in %. Muskies have a slim edge on NC at 76% to 75.6%, followed by Butler at 74.7 and UCLA at 74.5%. No one else in the 70's.
Memphis is 58.8% which ranks 326th in the nation! We rank #11 by the way

Re: Wash Post
Agree with WaPo on need to be good FT team to win it all ... maybe to even get to Final Four. Sooooo many Dance games get down to final minute(s) when losing team fouls to stop clock, and team in front fails to convert.
X is blessed with two people charged with bring the ball up court, that fouling them just aallows us to extend lead with Drew and Stan.
Any have any idea what Sean's college FT% was? Dollars to donuts it was really, really good ... thus his emphasis on it, and his coaching getting people better. Just look at progress Justin has made .... even though I have seen his left foot two inches off where it should be, eh Millersdad?

Re: Wash Post
It's fair to say this team is modeled in his image.
